Cases of measles soar as experts warn virus can leave children dead or brain damaged

Health experts are warning that a growing measles outbreak could leave unprotected children brain damaged or dead.

Following 43 new cases in the Swansea area of south Wales in the last week, the number affected has risen to 252.

One in six of of those affected have been hospitalised, Public Health Wales (PHW) said today.

Most mothers 'are giving their babies too many calories': Infants put on path to obesity, warn experts

Three-quarters of babies and toddlers are fed too many calories, official figures show.

Experts warn that these children, although under 18 months old, are at risk of being obese in later life.

The number of calories babies need varies hugely depending on their age, how quickly they grow and whether they are active. But generally infants under six months will not need more than 600 a day while those aged six months to a year should not have more than 750.
